Jane, you are so right! Last summer when we were there we found a sublet on craigslist. Let’s just say the photos were deceptively nice looking. And we had a guy roommate, AND the girl we rented the room from found our hide-a-key and moved into the living room. It was quite the adventure.

Glad you found something great!

so fun, erica! I’ll have to get your info from malerie!

tips on finding housing up there…geesh, I WISH I had good advice. Just check craigslist OFTEN, if you want something, get on top of it, and, if you don’t have anyone there who can go look at places for you, definitely take a visit and look yourself. we have friends helping and if it wasn’t for them I’m sure we’d be in a dump right now. Good luck!!!

Hi Jane! I love you blog. (I’m the friend of Malerie Weed’s that commented once before.) I didn’t know you were moving to Palo Alto! My husband and I are moving there too. We spent last summer there for his internship, and we loved it! We’ll be heading out in May. Good luck with all your preparations. I’m jealous you have housing squared a way. If you have any tips, you’re welcome to send them my way!

thanks for the falafel details! I like your box method idea and will look for that today. I actually have a pretty yummy (easy) recipe for something that sounds like falafel. Chick peas, parsley,canned chilis etc. We make it and shape it into turkey legs for my vegetarian kids at Thanksgiving.
